@movq@www.uninformativ.de i feel like when i read go code i’m reading some algebra shit where every part is 1-5 letters long and then there’s weird symbols like := and it’s just infinitely harder for me to parse and infer meaning from lol. it’s such a me problem

i switched my bookmarks site from espial (unmaintained project) to linkding, and while i’ll miss espial’s simplicity, i do appreciate linkding’s power and the provided API.

at first i got auth working with my SSO (authelia) and was happy, but i want my public bookmarks available without login… and i couldn’t configure my proxy to make that work, because of issues with sub paths, which sucks. so i switched to linkding’s built-in auth. inconvenient, but worth it to share my bookmarks.

In-reply-to » i recorded and posted another vlog yesterday :] https://memoria.sayitditto.net/view?m=UNwsVI9yp

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org that’s alright haha! i don’t expect anyone to listen/watch in full or with full attention bc it’s so long lmao

the thing with PHP for me is that i… feel like it hits a kind of simplicity that i can understand? it’s so plain but can be very powerful. i quite like that. as much as i can learn something infinitely more powerful, PHP hits a comfortable thing where i can handle things like backend sqlite DBs AND how a page is rendered, without requiring a complex frontend with its own quirks (like ruby on rails, which as much as i know and love it, can be heavy).

but i totally get you! PHP security is very scary. i’m always worried that i’m messing something up. it’s why the PHP application i’m working on i have dockerized by default for a small but extra layer of protection

i’ll try to not get discouraged tysm for your advice

In-reply-to » @kat I was about to say that you can always just buy one, but apparently that’s not so easy anymore?! What the heck happened? 🤨 There used to be several shops here in Germany that sold a variety of Tux plushies, but none of that exists anymore … 😳

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org those tuxes are kinda cute but not what i’m looking for! i want a silly stupid looking tux the most lol

i got so emo about my site not being statically generated and instead hand coded but it’s like i don’t even know if i want that because i feel most SSGs are built for blogging and continuous posting and i don’t want that i just want to make my silly pages….

that being said, the one i’d use if i did switch to one would be astro and that one is so flexible i could really do anything with it including keeping my pages as is mostly without doing the blog stuff. idk! something to consider

In-reply-to » Also spent the morning continuing to think about a new design for EdgeGuard's WAF. I'm basically going to build an entirely new pluggable WAF that will be designed to only consider Rate Limiting, IP/ASN-based filtering, JavaScript challenge handling, Basic behavioral analysis and Anomaly detection.

@prologic@twtxt.net anubis is THE BESTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
